Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
The 120 pound limit has been modified in the recent past, with an option for a tall, light robot or a shorter, heavy robot. You had to make the trade-offs. I think you could be 5' tall and 110 pounds or 4' tall and 120 pounds - 2007 maybe.
On the three alliance point - this years player station would support that - what if one alliance had a driver station at each end of the field. The ball collection area formed a natural barrier to "separate" this drive team from the others?
And for a three phase match - what about Auto - Human - Auto? You have to set yourself up to do some autonomous task at the very end?
I could also see the GDC going to a smaller frame size. Lots of teams are getting good at 28x38 drive bases - wide or long. A change to a smaller size would force all of the veterans back to the design table to find a new, smaller system that worked.
